I've developed a sort of liking for the G4 series now that I've had a G40 in my house for a few weeks...

What is a must:

- G41 model
- Pentium-powered, no Celerons please
- nVidia video card, whether 64Mb or 128Mb
- 15" SXGA+ screen

What I can live without:

- memory, HDD, battery, AC adapter

Condition of the screen is important. No major blemishes, please.

Condition of the machine is not that important. I can live with cracks, sticker residue and wear in general.

Please PM with offers. Will pay a reasonable amount for the right machine.

Hi George,

If you feel like figuring it out, here is a G41 for $299...

Thanks, Steve.

I've seen that one but that's an XGA...apart from other issues that I'd gladly play with if it were a SXGA+...

Here is one SXGA+ but is expensive. Ebay Item #250176494782

Carlos,

That's not expensive, that's highway robbery...

One of the other "refurbishers" sold the identical machine last week for $550, and their prices are not really bargain basement...

I may be insane, but this is...

Anyway, thanks for the laugh!

Is it possible that no one around here has one that they got bored with and are dying to upgrade...?

In one word...yes

So Kristian, my friend,

Can you dig out one for me in the land down under???

There's a G40 w/ SXGA+ and 3GHz P4 on eBay here, but with integrated graphics and, of course it's a G40 and not a G41. I'll continue to keep an eye out, but it could be a while before something arises. G4x laptops around here are rare commodities.
